Create React App should not be used because it is no longer maintained. Here is its GitHub repro: https://github.com/facebook/create-react-app/commits/main/ . It has had very few updates since July 2022. This is bad because it needs constant updates because it depends on a large number of packages and those packages are constantly releasing security updates.

That doesn't sound like a good selling point for react.
create-react-app is not react
While true, if cargo was exploitable we'd say it was rust.
To be fair, this would be more analogous to some random person creating a crate called 'create-rust-app' and then abandoning it. Hardly a signal that Rust is dead.
Never said it was saying react/rust were dead, I said it "doesnt look good". Those words were not in my mouth.
